Yes. Blood can carry bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV, so it is treated as a biological hazard. Cleaning it up follows the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, when workers are involved.
Cleanup begins only after law enforcement releases the scene. A crime scene cleaning team then removes blood, bodily fluids and contaminated materials, disinfects the affected area and treats odor. Family members should not clean it themselves.
Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
Hospitals use hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectants after the visible blood has been removed. Professional blood cleaners use the same kind of products, matched to the surface and the germ list on the label.
The price depends on the size of the spill, how deep the blood soaked in, the surface type and how much waste is removed. A cleanup company gives a price after seeing the affected area. Some teams offer payment plans, so ask when you call.
No single product is best for every surface. Blood is lifted first, then the area is disinfected with a product made for bloodborne pathogens. Porous materials such as carpet or drywall often have to be removed instead of cleaned.
